The selection consists predominantly of whole truffles with generally rounded or regular shapes, while allowing a limited proportion of naturally irregular, lightly scratched, cut or partially broken pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUp to 30% of the total product weight may consist of truffles with these permitted physical variations. Truffles showing softness, decay, serious deterioration or visible insect infestation are not accepted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Grade is suitable for restaurants, professional kitchens and home cooks who require fresh truffles for shaving, slicing, grating and general culinary preparation without needing the highest presentation standard of EXTRA Grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCommercial grade primarily describes size, shape and physical condition. Aroma intensity varies naturally according to maturity, freshness, seasonal conditions and the individual harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIndividual Truffle Size\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIndividual truffles generally weigh approximately 15–100 g and measure approximately 3–8 cm in diameter. Because truffles are naturally formed underground, variation in weight, diameter, shape and surface appearance is expected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe selected product quantity refers to the total weight supplied rather than the exact number of individual truffles included in the order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAroma, Flavour and Texture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFresh \u003cem\u003eTuber aestivum\u003c\/em\u003e has a delicate earthy and woodland aroma with mild nutty and mushroom-like notes. As it matures, the interior develops a pale beige to light hazelnut-brown colour with fine natural marbling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe texture should be firm when fresh. Its aroma becomes more noticeable after slicing or shaving, particularly when the truffle is served over warm food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use Fresh Summer Truffle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClean the truffle gently immediately before use.
